ADDITIONAL SELF-DEFENSE CLASSES:AFTERMATHLessons In Self-DefenseSo, now you have your carry permit.You have also selected a suitable sidearm and ammunition for self-defense for carry. Before you venture armed out into the public, have you taken the time to consider the ramifications of your involvement in a deadly force, self-defense encounter?“Well, after all” you say, “What are the chances that something like that is actually going to happen to me?” One response to that might be, “If that is your position on the issue, why would you carry a gun at all?” Despite fairly aggressive debate among the experts on self-defense, and gun control advocates, a published conservative estimate is that self-defense incidents occur over 100,000 times each year. Some estimate that they occur much more often than that. From a practical perspective, your odds are 50-50. It is either going to happen, or it is not. If it does, after the smoke has cleared, what do you do, what do you say, to whom, and when? How do you deal with neighbors, friends, your own family, the media, the police? How do you protect yourself legally in the ongoing battle to protect your life and liberty?

These lessons in self-defense will demonstrate what you can expect when the shooting stops.

This book will help guide you through the legal process that takes place once the self-defense shooting stops. The author's writing style is direct, the chapters fly by like a conversation, filled with practical insight and sound advice. If you are going to carry a firearm for self-defense, or employ one within your home, you need to spend considerable time preparing not only for a self-defense encounter, but for the aftermath of that encounter as well.
